Arthur M Young: Determinism Free Will & Fate Complete Thinking Allowed program Host-Jeffrey Mishlove

Free will and purpose are not inconsistent with a universe subject to law. In fact, says Arthur Young, your free will would be ineffective without a determinate world to act upon. Young, inventor of the Bell helicopter and author of The Reflexive Universe, also discusses the difference between determinism the belief that everything acts according to law, and pre-destination or fate.
Thinking Allowed has recently completed the massive task of remastering and digitizing all 450 programs in our series, which aired on PBS stations across the U.S. from 1986 through 2002.
The new, hi-res programs will be made available in various ways yet to be determined. We begin this access process by making available all of the programs we made featuring Arthur M. Young, teacher and mentor to both Jeffrey Mishlove and to series co-producer/director Arthur Bloch.

What? No free will? Karma and Newton's Third Law. Law of action/reaction.
"I am a determinist. As such, I do not believe in free will. The Jews believe in free will. They believe that man shapes his own life. I reject that doctrine philosophically. In that respect I am not a Jew. I am Oriental by blood." - Albert Einstein, interview with G. S. Viereck, 'What Life Means To Einstein', Saturday Evening Post,October 26, 1929
"I do not believe in freedom of will. Schopenhauer's words, "Man can indeed do what he wants, but he cannot want what he wants", accompany me in all life situations and console me in my dealings with people, even those that are really painful to me. This recognition of the unfreedom of the will protects me from taking myself and my fellow men too seriously as acting and judging individuals and losing good humor." - Albert Einstein
"As regards the freedom of the will, if it were the case that the will manifested itself in a single act alone, it would be a free act. But the will manifests itself in a course of life, that is to say, in a series of acts. Every one of these acts, therefore, is determined as a part of a complete whole, and cannot happen otherwise than it does happen. On the other hand, the whole series is free; it is simply the manifestation of an individualized will. Man can do what he wills but he cannot will what he wills." - Arthur Schopenhauer
"We shall leave this world as foolish and as wicked as we found it on our arrival." - Voltaire
